Can I install with a custom partition with the XFCE Spin Live CD --
Fedora 20?
I have the CD and had started the installation and after selecting the
language I get a summary that says automatic partitioning has been
selected. I never saw an opportunity to choose a custom layout -- which
anaconda used to offer.
This is an old dual boot laptop. I want to save all that, and to save
my old home directory.
I would also like to choose my packages, if that's still possible.
Hi Barry,
I recently used that spin. Early in the install you get to a page where
user, date, network, and disk settings are made. After you select disk
layout you'll be presented with some choices. Check the corners of the
page. I believe bottom left allows selecting Custom settings where you
can pick your drives, partitions, and *sometimes* even LVM stuff. Read
your options carefully. Sometimes the english used can seem a little
stilted. Regardless of your choices you will have a chance to back out
before committing yourself. It may require a reboot because not all of
the selection offer a *Back* button.
As far as package selection goes, I think you haven't a choice.
